EDITORS COMMENTS
Deep Sea Fishing, 1864. Artist: James Clarke Hook (Deep Sea Fishing, 1864. Cornish fishermen fishing from a St Ives boat) This print takes us back to the bustling fishing industry of the 19th century in Britain. Painted by the talented artist James Clarke Hook, it beautifully captures a scene of Cornish fishermen as they embark on their deep sea fishing expedition. The painting showcases a group of hardworking men dressed in traditional English attire, donning oilskin clothing and sturdy hats to protect themselves from the elements. They are seen skillfully navigating their sailing boat through the rough waters off Cornwall's coast. The vibrant colors used by Hook bring life to this historical moment, with shades of blue depicting the vastness and power of the sea. The sailboat gracefully glides across the water, showcasing both its beauty and functionality as an essential mode of transportation for these brave fishermen. Located within Guildhall Library Art Gallery, this artwork serves as a testament to England's rich maritime heritage and highlights the significance of St Ives as a hub for fishing activities during that era. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the dedication and resilience displayed by these courageous men who relied on their skills and knowledge to sustain their livelihoods amidst challenging conditions.
